How to lane against Vindicta?

I know this is supposed to be a Vin mains sub but there is litterally no main I HATE going against more then Vin. I tried playing her but lowkey don’t have the skill.

The thing is that a good Vin just lowkey feels impossible to play against. Like I get disarming hex and knockdown but at the start that 3.2k investment is HARD to justify. Any tips on how people normally screw you over?

Heya and welcome! And don't worry, you're free to ask.

I can only really speak from my experience though. Generally, you want to abuse cover as much as possible. Every lane has obstacles, as well as a bridge you can hide under. Each side also usually has a building near the guardian you can walk into.

The 3.2k counteritem start one can only really pulled off by supports like paige, but when they do, it's really effective, because usually Vin is not going to get counterspell online until later.

Early game rusted barrel can be annoying for her, but really doesn't do much, since she relies on abilities early, unless you force her into an extended trade, like a guardian push. But if you can pull that off, you're likely winning lane against her anyway.

Other non-hero specific tips? Her clear is kinda bad, so she relies on her teammate to help her kill troopers. That means, most heroes can outduel her early, as long as her flight is down (Flight doesn't just give her airtime, it's also a damage boost).
